rh62 suid files
...r/bin/newgrp? Does
anybody really use them on Linux? Maybe these should be extras ... (maybe
they are needed by POSIX or something similar).
What is /usr/bin/sperl5.00503 (suidperl) being used for? Why this doesn't
have a manpage? Is it necessary?
According to glibc documentation /usr/libexec/pt_chown doesn't need to be
setuid nor is not used at all on RH6.2 (see /usr/doc/glibc-2.1.3/INSTALL),
why does RH6.2 ships it setuid root?
Does /sbin/netreport need root setgid bit? I could not find it being used
somewhere by regular users for any good reasons ...
Have a nice day
